    Your guess is correct.  The plan is to hold a 6 week working group
    last call beginning the end of September.  We would then submit a
    revised draft to the IESG after responding to comments posted during
    that working group last call period.
    
    Cheers,
    Geoff

       Just to clarify things -- at the end of September, are you beginning a
       Working Group last call, or are you submitting the protocol document to the
       IESG, who, as part of their approval process, hold a two week last call?
       I'm guessing the former (a working group last call), but your message was a
       little ambiguous, so I wanted to double-check.

       Good news! The members of the Delta-V design team feel that the WebDAV
       Versioning Specification has reached the point that it is ready for Last
       Call. We would like to submit by the end of this month (September). So if
       you can, give the spec a thorough review and if you have any pressing issues
       you'd like addressed before last call, let us know within the next week. The
       duration for last call will be six weeks giving plenty of time for review as
       well as a few weeks before the December IETF to address any issues that come
       up. We'll address these issues at a Delta-V working group meeting and design
       team meetings during the December IETF with the goal to resolve all
       remaining issues.
    
       I would like to thank everyone for their hard work in producing a quality
       draft covering a complex subject area. We've got something here that will
       really make a difference enabling client applications to access resources
       managed by a number of repository managers. In particular, I'd like to thank
       Geoff Clemm for his tireless efforts in editing the many drafts, and for his
       attention to detail and thoughtful explanations of difficult concepts.
       Thanks to everyone, we've tamed the versioning beast!
    
       So let's all gear up for the big push to get this thing through last call so
       we can get some implementations in the works and continue our journey down
       the path of draft proposed standard.
